Review of Moonlight Sonata: Deafness in Three Movements (2019) by John Defore for The Hollywood Reporter — 13 Sep 2019
The documentary plays like a home movie that snowballed, causing its maker to overestimate her subject's relevance to the outside world. Though parts of it will certainly resonate within the deaf community (assuming it is made available with closed captioning), the film has little of the philosophical appeal of other documentaries on this topic, and sometimes seems willfully solipsistic.
